MAHALO to Ilan Amir for kicking off Grade 4’s project-based learning (PBL) unit with a presentation about the Holocaust, which directly affected Mr. Amir’s Jewish family. 

 

Grade 4’s PBL is centered on the novel, "Number the Stars.”  They learned about the Holocaust’s historical context and the realities of war, while reflecting on themes of light, hope, and resilience—and on the efforts to restore humanity and rebuild lives.

 

Their project will culminate in an art installation displayed in the Castle Memorial Library for Holocaust Memorial Day in January 2027.
